At the master’s level, the Faculty of Environmental Design offers three course-based professional master’s degrees and two thesis-based, research and post-professional degrees.
The Master of Architecture is a course-based first professional degree at the graduate level. The degree is accredited by the Canadian Architectural Certification Board.
The Master of Landscape Architecture is a course-based first professional degree at the graduate level, whose curriculum reflects the requirements for accreditation by the Canadian Society of Landscape Architects (we will be seeking accreditation with the graduation of our first cohort in 2018).
The Master of Planning is a course-based first professional degree at the graduate level. The degree is accredited by the Professional Standards Board of the Canadian Institute of Planners.
The thesis-based Master of Environmental Design (MEDes) and the PhD are research degrees that involve independent inquiry into a range of contemporary issues of human intervention in environments across the spectrum of faculty research expertise.
The PhD degree in Environmental Design involves interdisciplinary research inquiry in thematic areas related to Architecture, Planning, and Sustainable Design across the spectrum of faculty research expertise.
